Why can’t I see most Boosts in the TV Boosts page?

The TV Boosts page only lists the Boosts which meet both of the following criteria:

• You are eligible to subscribe to the Boosts
• You are not already subscribed to the Boosts

A small number of our customers are not eligible to most Boosts due to their line speed being too slow (less than 5Mbps when you signed up to TalkTalk). As our Boost channels and on-demand content is delivered over the internet, we require lines to be sufficiently fast to give customers a positive viewing experience.

If you’re not one of these customers, the most likely reason for not seeing a Boost on the TV Boosts page is that you’re already subscribed to it. Go to My TV and check to see whether you have a tab with the name of the Boost you’re looking for. If you see it in My TV, then you are already subscribed to it.

If you believe that you should be eligible for the Boost and are not already subscribed to it, please contact our customer services using the live chat feature on this page.
